Song lyrics by Brian Lampkin, music by Gubb Cooper, played by Gubb (acoustic guitars, harmonica and vocals) and Gubb's now 19-year-old son, Sam (bass guitar, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, keyboards and harmony vocals). These are rough cuts, recorded in Gubb and Sam's living room, with some very obvious screw-ups and imperfections. One day, perhaps, we'll get around to recording these songs a bit more professionally (though really, Raw Deal is more of a songwriting project than a band). See our first blog entry (above) for a little on the history of Raw Deal (hit "View All Blog Entries" and scroll down). For more on Brian's writing, check out his blog, "Sleeping Through Sirens" (via our "Band Website"). And check out some of Sam's own original songs via the Sam Berman-Cooper link in our "Friend Space" (below) -- his solo CD, "Measure of Doubt" (released under his stage name, Sam Gillam), is available through CD Baby.
